New ASME Y14.5M?

New ASME Y14.5M?

New ASME Y14.5M?

(OP)
Hello everybody! My first time here! Very nice this site!
Does anybody know if a new version of ASME Y14.5M is coming soon? Thanks for your attention!

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?

I don't know the actual answer, but that standard has been reaffirmed every 5 years since ASME took it over and published published it in 1994.  Unless there's some drastic shift in the industry in the next 2 years, I wouldn't expect anything other than another reaffirmation in 2009.  Don't take this guest to the bank though. :)

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?

I've heard whispers that some things may be changed to be more consistent/closer match to 14.41 but can't remember more.

I seem to recall somone mentioning a date but can't think what it was.

KENAT, probably the least qualified checker you'll ever meet...

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?

I heard the draft would be released this October. However I would not bet any money on it. It would be nice if someone in authority would give us a clue.

I found some information about it! There will be a new revision of ASME Y14.5M in 200X. Changes include Assembly and new tolerance representation (harmonization with ISO standards)

"harmonization with ISO standards"  Dear load.  Who in the ISO world understands these as they relate to TOL?  Now they want this in the US?  If there there was some benefit to it, I'd be looking forward to this.  Anyone wanna convince me? LOL

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?

The new Y14.5 draft is to be released in the first quarter of 2008 per ASME.

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?

Q1 2008 huh? Hey Gary, wasn't there a prelim draft out somewhere around 2000? Harmonization with ISO? I'm with you, Matt. The Y14.5 standard smells too much like ISO already, and not for the better in my humble opinion.

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?

Ron: There was a pre draft around 2000 to members of the committee only.

On Monday of this week, ASME posted a public review draft to revise and redesignate current ANS: ASME Y14.5 - 20XX, Dimensioning and Tolerancing.  

Public review period for this new draft ends on 1/22/2008.

A copy of the review draft may be purchased from ASME at a cost of $85 (US).

Wed link to the ASME public review page as follows:

RE: New ASME Y14.5M?
